I'm delighted to have found Lisa as a sitter and hope to have her back again! She was detail oriented and clearly cared about my cats' well being. She asked good questions about the cats' routines and needs and about the house to be sure she'd meet my expectations and have a comfortable and successful sit. She communicated very well before and throughout the sit and even though I was unreachable for much of the time I was confident everyone was in good hands. Lisa left the house in immaculate condition and the cats were relaxed and happy when I got home. What a delight!
Cung is a diligent and communicative cat sitter and house guest, and we'd highly recommend him! We hope to have him back again soon
Joi did a wonderful job caring for my two cats and two guinea pigs, as well as caring for my home! She is coming back in November for a long sit while I am out of the country and we all can’t wait. Joi had experience with rabbits and jumped right in with guinea pig care. She is so calm around them that they were sitting on her lap day one! She spent time preparing their vegetables and kept their enclosure and room clean, which requires daily effort. She even washed the floor mats in their room so it was fresh when I returned home. She went above and beyond sending me daily photos and videos so I could see that everyone was healthy and happy. It was apparent to me that she spent a lot of time with my pets, which is very important so they don’t become stressed and lonely when I am away. Joi also took excellent care of my two cats. They receive daily wet food with some medication and she ensured that they received it on time. My cats barely noticed when I returned because they got so much attention from Joi. She took excellent care of my front garden flowers and my tomato and herb hydroponic gardens. These take some daily attention and time in the summer, and I returned home to them looking great! Joi is a very caring, clean, and thoughtful sitter and I hope she comes back many more times!
Wow! Just wow! We cannot say enough about the care and compassion Trisha and John provided to our cats and our home. We are always somewhat nervous about a new pet sitter in our home, but that all faded when we met this wonderful couple. They provided daily updates as requested, complete with pictures, videos and personalized captions. Upon our return, we were greeted by happy and content kitties. There was no sign of anxiety in Tika! Yea!!! Our home was clean, the sheets and towels were washed and bed remade! They even left behind thank you notes and little gifts! What a breath of fresh air these two individuals are! We hope to have them back again soon.
Wow, what a find Justin is! I feel as though I won a lottery. As I was revelling in the communication we were having during his stay, I looked over his profile and realized either that he had updated it during his stay OR I never even read it. I was so impressed with his initial application that described multiple stays taking care of cats in Turkey that I knew he was going to be a great choice. So I'm not sure that I even read his profile or reviews. Turned out...he was more than I could have EVER hoped for. Justin is VERY organized and clear with his communication. Just as--or maybe more--important, he is a poster child for what zeewoi can be: more than just an economical way to get a pet sitter or a place to stay. Justin embraces the barter economy and the opportunity it presents to get to know people. Although we only met the day that I turned the house and my 2 cats over to his care, we had delightful communication throughout his stay. He wanted to be sure he was providing the right care to all living and non-living elements of my home as well as just chat beyond what we'd had an opportunity to cover when we were face to face on the handoff day. Bottom line: I'd have Justin back even if I wasn't going anywhere! I've met a friend. And my neighbors did as well! Oh yes, and my two cats were well looked after, the house was in ship shape, and Justin was able to brief the next sitter in person (I'd had to extend my time away and Justin already had another commitment). To say I felt confident leaving my pets and home in Justin's care is an understatement. Justin is a real adventurer and believer in the power of both human and animal connection. Without a doubt, I would recommend him as a sitter...and a friend! Thank you, Justin for a great example of how to wrestle so much more meaning out of zeewoi.
Kathy and Ron arrived at our home with a most fantastical toy for our cats and a giant apple pie. Need I say more? They are very experienced sitters and brought personal items that they prefer. We knew we were leaving out cats in good hands. A large part of their 'job' was hand watering our garden and Ron took that in stride. Everything is thriving. Our cats are usually distant with new people but we received photos of them keeping Kathy and Ron company in various situations which was reassuring. They clearly won our cats over. Although Ron and Kathy had a ferry to catch on their last day, they took time to wash their linens and hang them on the clothesline. They also left us a gorgeous plant for our garden. We would very much like to have them back for a longer sit if possible.
Jenny was an absolute delight, lovely to speak to and patient with last minute changes. I have had bad experiences with trusting people with my cats before so was really anxious as Jenny is the first house sitter I have used from zeewoi. But, I felt at ease as soon as I spoke to her, she has a lovely manner and she came round the day before the sit to male sure she had every detail right. But I think the thing that helped the most was her regular updates about my cats. I could see from the videos she sent they were given lots of love and attention. My cats don't usually play with people but my little girl seemed to love her! My flat was immaculate when I got back as well, I am so grateful to Jenny for all her help and really hope to have her sit for me again!
If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur babies and your house while you're away, Daniel is your guy! I had discovered zeewoi just a couple of weeks before I was to leave on vacation and I was not only apprehensive if the website was too good to be true, but also under a real time crunch. I reached out to over 100 local sitters and several possibilities fell through. I was confident I would find the right sitter and when Daniel applied for the sit and I started to text and converse with him, I knew I had found the perfect sitter for my two cats! Daniel was upbeat and positive, articulate and personable, warm and caring, and he asked all the right questions about Lilly and Eli (I hadn't had the time to complete my Welcome Guide, yet!?!). I shared that I had an easy cat and problem cat -- Lilly, who is sweet, social and eats dry food, and Eli who is skittish, was periodically pooping outside the kitty litter box and was eating prescription canned food twice a day mixed with a probiotic and stool firmer. I asked if he thought he was up for the job and he happily said he was. Since he flew all the was from Chicago, I thought the least my husband and I could do was pick him up at the airport. When he arrived, he pulled out his notebook. He patiently walked with me as I reviewed kitty care, showed him around the house, and where he would be sleeping. He immediately picked up Lilly who was excited about meeting her new friend and Eli bugged out and down the stairs to the basement (his favorite hiding place!). We got Daniel connected to the internet, set him up at our dining room table and headed off to airport, leaving our house and kitties in the best of hands. Daniel wanted to make sure I felt comfortable and assured while we were away. He made sure to text with me every other day (he had asked my preference earlier), sent photos of Lilly being her cute self while Eli hid during the day although he gave me assurances that he was eating his food and using the litter box (there were a few accidents, but Daniel never complained about these additional duties). When we returned from our vacation, the house was also spotless and well cared for and Daniel had even washed the sheets for me! It is with utter happiness and complete confidence that I recommend Daniel as a fantastic Sitter. He is trustworthy, responsible, caring, and competent, and you can rest assured that both your house and sweet pets will be watched over and treated with TLC -- and will truly be in the best of hands while you are away!
Karen was an extraordinary house and pet sitter who I hope to invite back again soon. You would be extremely fortunate to have her take care of your pets and home. From the very beginning she radiated calmness, knowledge, caring and curiosity. We had a great initial conversation where Karen answered questions I didn't even know I should be asking, and asked excellent questions so she could be prepared and understand the special needs for both my cat and home. She flew into my city the day before I was leaving and stayed at a nearby hostel so that we could meet in person and do a walk through of my home. They say pets have an intuitive nature about people, and I knew Karen would be a winner when my normally very shy/nervous cat came right up and let her pet him. Karen sent wonderful pictures and updates while I was gone and asked questions when she wasn't sure about something. When I returned home everything was spotless and my cat was content. Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better house sitter experience. Thank you Karen!
I whole-heartedly recommend Carly and her partner Fanny to sit for you! They were fabulous and reliable house sitters from start to finish. Carly was timely and thoughtful in all of her communications and let us know the state of affairs in our apartment with our cat and plant babies while we were away. They followed our directions to a 'T.' We came home to find a happy cat, thriving plants, a spotless apartment and laundered linens. We would definitely consider contacting them again to house sit for us!
Is it better to board cats or leave at home?
Veterinarians advising to leave cats at home with a pet sitter who will stay overnight in your home, boarding is not recommended for cats as they are stressed in a new environment, you can find a sitter who will care for your cats and home overnight at Sittsy.
How much should you pay someone to watch your cat?
At least 20$ per visit, $13/week per overnight watching in your home, otherwise you can find a free sitter at Sittsy.
What do people do with their cats when they go on vacation?
Inviting a cat sitter to your home, boarding the cat with a local business, asking a friend, family or neighbour to feed and check the well-being. The most efficient way to leave your cat during your vacation is with Sittsy cat sitters overnight, in this way, you will save cat sitting costs and make vacation not only for you but also for your cat sitter!
I've been a loyal customer of Dawg Gone It Kennel in Monterey for the past three years, regularly boarding our Labrador, Gracie, there when we travel. Until now, we've always had positive experiences, and Gracie has come back happy. However, this past Wednesday, I left her there for just one night due to an out-of-town event, and the situation was alarming upon her return. When we picked her up, Gracie could hardly walk. Her right thigh seemed uninjured, yet she struggled to use it. She couldn't stand on her own, even to get out of the truck at home, so my husband had to help her up the stairs. Disturbingly, Gracie has eaten only twice since we brought her back on Thursday. We've reached out to Dawg Gone It to find out what happened, but no one seems to have any answers. We requested a review of the surveillance footage and were assured it would happen, but so far, nothing has been done. Despite promises that the manager would call us, she hasn't. When we called again on Friday, we were told that the owner was dealing with personal issues and couldn't review the video. Now it's Saturday, three days since Gracie came home, and neither a manager nor the owner has reached out or explained what occurred. Although her leg is improving slightly, she still refuses to eat. I'm extremely disappointed and disheartened that the staff at Dawg Gone It is prioritizing personal matters over addressing the concerns of their customers, especially when a beloved pet was returned in such distress. Sadly, we will not be using their services again
We've had our dogs there multiple times, for multiple nights stay. Always happy to walk in. Nobody ever comes home acting traumatized. You can walk in there and ask to be shown the place at random. I've done this. The staff that work there are nice. I've never had any issues. A++
Thank you for taking such good care of Augustus. I really appreciated the peace of mind I got knowing how well cared for he was. I especially appreciated the playtime with the other dogs, your working his medication in with his food, the attentive staff, and lastly, the wonderful grooming before pick up. I highly recommend Dawg Gone It…this is more than a five star facility. Thank you so much!
This is our go to home away from home for our pups. While we hate to leave them, we always know they will be safe and well cared for here. It gets expensive if you load up walks, play time and cuddles. Have a plan when going in or you will add everything at check in and get surprised when you pay. Be sure to book your reservation a free weeks ahead of time in the summer.
Casey has been coming here when we come to Pebble Beach to volunteer. Stephanie does great work every visit! 2025 will be our 3rd year!
Our Aussie, Gus, seemed to have enjoyed his stay at Dawg Gone It more than our previous arrangements via Rover. He stayed for a day and a half. I think it was $35-40 for one night and then an additional $10 per hour of group play time. Although I wish these types of services we're included in the stay, they did provide a long list of a variety of services at different price points and packages. The staff also shared a couple of stories about Gus' stay when we came in to pick him up, which was nice and personal.
I found myself in a situation where I had to board my service dog over night. this was not something I was comfortable doing and was very stressed. Dawg Gone It was absolutely wonderful. they allowed me to tour their facility even tho it was a last minute need and they where closing. it was clean and very nice by the time I left I felt comfortable leaving such an important dog in their care. They where respectful and obeyed my request that her Fi tracking collar be left on at all times. I feel confident knowing that if I ever travel in that area again and run into the need to board Snow that she will be safe and well cared for.
My doggie Lucy has always been treated with kindness and gentleness. I would never leave her anywhere else! Stephanie and Rob are doing a great job! Every one of their workers are A+ wonderful!
Wish I could give zero stars. Said my dog wasn’t interested in socializing with other dogs and kept my medium sized dog in a small kennel the entire week. Pretty suspicious that there are 3 reviews written but 101 total “reviews”. Just wanted to give others better expectation on what you are getting for the price. Will not use again.
I have boarded my two beagles here several times over the years. I took a tour of the place before I left them for the first time and was impressed by the overall cleanliness, security and bright and happy atmosphere of this facility. I feel 100% confident that my dogs are safe when they are staying at Doggone It in Monterey. The staff is polite and friendly, follow my feeding instructions carefully (one of my dogs was older and had some special needs) and my dogs are so happy when I pick them up. I highly recommend Doggone It to anyone looking for a great place for their dogs to stay for daycare or overnight boarding.
I left my puppy Bruno for one week, I missed him so much. When I picked him up, he was as if I never left. I am so happy he can stay here for daycare and boarding, he loves it. Thank you wonderful staff!❤️❤️🐶🐶 …
We took our 'inherited' older blind/deaf dog there after his previous groomer had passed. We were hesitant as he is special needs and tends to be a shy boy. They were absolutely fantastic starting from the booking down to the groom. They updated me throughout the day on how he was doing, and kept me reassured the whole time. When it was time to pick up Joe, he was like a brand new pup! He was such a handsome boy and he was so excited to be feeling so fresh and clean. We will definitely be taking our old boy there again. Staff was amazing! Thank you!
We’ve brought our dogs here for years. Around 4 years ago Home Away From Home suffered a major fire in the building, and since, they have rebuilt and come such a long way. Our Aussie Shepherd Haku loves it here, and the staff know and love him. He always comes back to us clean and happy with a fresh grooming when we pick him up. It’s just a very personal experience with Home Away From Home. Joel obviously loves dogs, and has made his passion his career. Five stars from a loyal customer.
I am absolutely so disappointed that I brought my beautiful little rabbit Bambi to this establishment.The front desk was very rude and told me that our rabbit was stressed out and started biting her fur because we were late picking her up. She has never done that ever. When they brought her out she was missing a chunk of hair and stress shedding her hair was falling out please see picture. The front desk person also charged my card without asking. She was also very unprofessional saying that she will sue me because we told her that we were going to give them a bad review. Absolutely a horrible person. I can’t tell you how distressing this experience was.
After adopting my dog from the SPCA I was hesitant to take my pup to any groomer. After doing some research and asking friends/family I decided to make an appointment and bring him in. Joi was helpful with setting up an appointment and all the staff including the groomer were fantastic. The whole experience was easy and hassle free, not to mention the groomer did a great job. I am so glad I found this place and will continue to bring him in!
Nothing but good things to say! We have been taking our dogs here for about a year now, based on a neighbor’s recommendation and are very pleased with each visit! HAFH’s boarding, daycare, and grooming are great services. Our dogs come home well socialized and tired from play in daycare. The boarding is wonderful when we can’t take them with us, and they even have a big van that they can come pick up your pets if needed! The onsite grooming is also great, especially when combined at the end of a boarding or daycare. The dogs come back very well cared for! The staff have always been polite and professional, in person and on the phone, and are great people who care about the pets they’re watching. Couldn’t recommend them more!
Home away from home is by far the best place for your fur babies. Wonderful location, loving and caring owners and staff great prices not to mention awesome grooming services.We will definitely be back. Skittles loves you all.
Wonderful staff, I felt very comfortable my baby here for the weekend. They assured me that she would be well taken care of, and she was. They were quick to respond when I asked how she was doing, and even sent me videos of her playing outside. I was nervous to take her because sometimes my Doberman gets snappy with other dogs. But they kept her alone, and still let her outside to play. I didn’t have to worry about a thing the whole time she was here and I thank you for that.
HAFH has been so amazing with my pup, Opal! Opal is a rescue and tends to be shy/skiddish in new places, with new people, and with new pups. But the HAFH staff have been SO helpful, welcoming, and supportive of Opal! She has been so taken care of and loved there. I know she’s safe and having fun during daycare and boarding stays! Truly a wonderful facility with amazing staff! Opal & I will miss you!!
Absolutely fantastic customer service, and even better service for my dog. I use their services often for when I am out of town or need a daycare, and they are fantastic every single time. They really show they care about the animals they work with and will even take time to give my dog a quick bath if she's played too much throughout the day! My dog also always comes home happy and ready for a looong nap after playing all day. Highly recommend their services for any of your pets needs.
Absolutely the best dog sitting experience I have ever had. I truly wish more places were as easy and as quality as Signature Paw Spa. We were very lucky for a last minute puppy sitters Josh and Sheadon that took great care of our little girl. They asked all important questions and were very professional. I can tell our little one was well cared for. I also really love that they give you the option for the pet to be dropped off to you! Thanks so much guys!
So my friends and I rarely get days off together. When we did we decided to go to Monterey. We brought our 2 dogs and unfortunately we cant bring them to Aquarium. Last minute I called Signature Paw Spa and luckily they have availability. I dropped my dogs just 15-20 mins after I called them and we all were able to go to the aquarium. They are really nice people and had kept me updated about my babies from time to time and My babies seemed to have enjoyed their time at Tonya's. I definitely recommend them
It was my first time leaving my 5 month old puppy with a pet sitter, and Signature Pet Spa/Tonya was awesome to put both me and my pup at ease. Tonya managed to work me in even though I called the day before I needed a pet sitter. She sent updates and pictures of my puppy enjoying her day, and my pup came back to me happy and well exercised when I picked her up. I definitely will be using Signature Pet Spa again!
Hands down the best dog experience!!!! I’ve used many dog services while traveling and I have to say ginger loved this place the moment she arrived. The owner came out to greet her and I when we arrived, which is a wonderful added bonus compared to some other place I have been to. The property offers a big grassy area for her to run and play, I was thrilled to see Tanya bonded perfectly from the moment ginger arrived. The pick up process was smooth and efficient since I was rushing to get back out of town. I would recommend this place to everyone with a beloved dog.
We boarded our lab with Signature Paw Spa while on a long cruise. This is a remarkable dog boarding company that provides warmth and care. The owner of Signature Paw Spa is an inspiration and a true leader. Under her guidance, she has cultivated a staff that mirrors her values and goes above and beyond to create a nurturing and loving environment for dogs, and their owners. They took the time to understand my dog's needs, preferences, and quirks. The facilities at Signature Paw Spa are top-notch, with immaculate and spacious accommodations designed to provide comfort and security. What truly sets Signature Paw Spa apart is the personal touch that permeates every interaction. We received updates and photos which provided a sense of reassurance and allowed me to stay connected, even when physically apart. Signature Paw Spa is a true gem among dog boarding facilities. From the heartfelt dedication of the owner to the exceptional care provided by the staff, this establishment exceeds expectations at every turn.
We called to get last minute day care for our dog, Gunner, during the US Open. The owner was so accommodating and made our pup feel right at home. If you are traveling to the area from out of town I would highly recommend this place if you are in need of doggie day care!
Signature Paw Spa is a life saver. My dog sitter canceled last minute on me and I was able to get my dog Charlie in at Signature Paw Spa. They sent me lots of pictures and videos of him playing with all his other little friends. Charlie was in their care for 3 days and he had a fabulous time! Thank you Signature Paw spa for saving my trip!
Tonya was so nice and accommodating - we asked for overnight boarding on the weekend with no notice and she was able to take our dog no problem. We got a few updates during his stay and felt very confident that he was getting great care in a wonderful setting. We would absolutely go to signature paw spa again!
Signature Paw Spa is the absolute best pet sitting service in the area.. I know my dog is in wonderful company when I leave him with Signature Paw Spa.. I love how the owner will take pictures and send them to me throughout his time with them.. He always looks so happy and like he is hanging such a blast.. I would most definitely highly recommend Signature Paw Spa for any pet sitting services you need while in the area.. I love them and can't recommend them enough.. Thank you Signature Paw Spa for always taking wonderful care of my sweet Kirby
i highly recommend SPS. Tonya the owner is VERY VERY organized and was very easy to communicate with. The dog sitting part of her business is at a large lovely home in Carmel. Convenient location for Monterey, Carmel and Big Sur. Tonya coordinated everything and was so nice to be flexible to our travel plans.. Decker was given lots attention and came back to us very happy
Melissa was absolutely amazing with our pup Sage. She was able to take her on such short notice for our wedding. She was very thorough and knew lots about Frenchies which made me feel at ease. It was our first time having Sage be puppy sat and have an overnight stay so I had lots of questions and Melissa was so kind and reassuring with all of them. I just knew Sage would be in good hands and love miss Melissa. She sent me cute pics and videos throughout her stay and was very accommodating with her additional pickups/drop offs for Sage’s part in our wedding. I highly recommend Melissa for over night stays and any other services you’d need for your pups, she’s a kind, sweet, caring, and trustworthy Soul.
I can’t say how much Melissa at Pets by the Sea meant to our family to help watch our dog Deiter. He was a very sweet boy but couldn’t be around other dogs - she made sure to take extra care of him and he acted like we were never gone when we got back from our trip. We know he must have been happy and we couldn’t have been happier. She sent us texts and pictures to show how good he was! We highly recommend Melissa and when we get another dog one day, we will ask her for her services again. Top notch!!
What a great experience!! My husband and I wanted to have a nice dinner for our Anniversary and Pets by the sea took wonderful care of our pug while we did so. I felt relaxed and at ease knowing she was in good hands. We were given an update via photo and text and my Mabel came back to us happy as ever!! I’m so grateful for Pets by the Sea. Thank you for helping make our anniversary trip great.
Pets By The Sea provides a wonderful pet care service with convenient pick up and delivery. Bandit and Raider, our 1 year old West Highland Terriers, are FULL of energy. We were so thankful to find Melissa and Jaden and have used them several times on our trips to Carmel. They are professional, reliable, so friendly ... and they give our boys a GREAT workout! Bandit and Raider are big fans, and so are we!
Melissa was awesome!!! I was coming from out of town and needed a pet sitter while I was at a wedding. When I reached out to her she was very quick to respond and very flexible to my needs. She made me feel super comfortable leaving my fur baby with her. I loved that she sent me updates every few hours. I cannot recommend Melissa enough!!! The experience was flawless!!!
INCREDIBLE SERVICE..MY DOG WANTED TO STAY WITH THEM...I WILL DEFINITELY RECCOMEND AND USE PETS BY RHE SEA AGAIN......MAUI BEACH BOYS...JOHN BROWNE
Dropped my pup off for half a day so my family could go to the Aquarium. It was 2 blocks from the Aquarium and reasonable to keep her there for the day. It was raining out, so they washed her paws when I came to pick her up to get the mud off. She seemed in great spirits when she came out! Would recommend for travelers needing to board the dog!
Gus has the best time at the day care! Definitely well use again when we visit Monterey
My husband, checked our dog who Is a cockapoo into “Casa de Amigos Animal Hotel” on October 20th , 2024, in Monterey California. At or around 4:30PM that evening, my husband and myself arrived at the facility to retrieve our dog at which point the hotel staff informed us that our dog had went missing from the facility. The staff had failed to properly secure their facility and supervise our dog as per the agreement. The police was contacted on behalf of my family and matters were taken into our own hands as the facility informed us that they did not have protocol for this type of incident. I was able to track my dog based off information received from a good Samaritan who located my missing dog and had submitted information to the police department. The staff and entire facility failed to show any sort of sympathy towards this situation and didn't seem to care that our dog was missing. We have not yet received a call from the manager or owner of the business regarding this matter. I am extremely unsatisfied with the service we were provided with. The lack of professionalism that was demonstrated in this facility needs to change immediately.
The staff at Casa de Amigos is always courteous and profession. They always remember my dog and are enthusiastic to see her when we walk in. My dog gets so excited when we pull into the parking lot! I love that they send pictures daily when we board her overnight.They have reasonable pricing and are kind enough to offer a military discount.
Very kind and accommodating staff, even gave my mother a tour to help calm her separation anxiety. Thank you for the great service and care for our dog
My little guy absolutely LOVED going to Casa de Amigos! The staff here are wonderful, and treat your dog like family. They always text me photos, which I appreciate. Your pup is in good hands here. I cannot recommend them enough! Also, their grooming services are AMAZING!
Used the daycare while visiting the aquarium. I had emailed earlier in the week with someone there. But they did not have our reservation when we arrived but everything went fine checking our little guy in they still accepted him. Picked him up 7 hours later and he is pooped and happy. Smooth process and the folks there were very nice. Next time we are in Monterey I would come back and recommend.
Our pup Cooper love this place, staff is very friendly and we love taking him there. Love how they send us pictures of him throughout the day as well! Such a sweet touch
my dogs first time at day care so i was nervous staff was friendly and even sent me pics of her playing made me feel at ease definitely recommend
They are so great and take good care of your pets. We have a 9 month old we've been bringing for daycare for socialization and they've been really great with her and have really made gains with her. Would recommend. We trust them with her when we have to board over night as well.
Leah is AMAZING! I recently hired Leah to drop-in to my house and take care of my pup in the afternoons while I had to travel to the office for a period and I couldn't be more impressed with the care and attention she provided. Not only did she take my dog on a fantastic walks, but she stayed with him until he was completely settled and comfortable. My dog can sometimes be anxious when I'm away but Leah made sure he was at ease before she left. You can really tell she loves animals and genuinely cares for the well-being of the pups she works with. I highly recommend Leah for anyone looking for a responsible and compassionate caretaker!
We had such a great experience with Leah. She made us feel at ease as soon as we met her. She took care of our sweet girl like she was her own. She even sent pictures and video of their adventures.10/10 recommend!
We came up to Monterey CA for car week. I’ve been so stressed to find a sitter for my fur baby. Actually my husband found Lucinda. He called her and she said I have to interview you first to make sure we are a fit. Long story short , the best thing that ever happened to us. I did really like Lucinda’s personality. She is very caring, she knows her animals, especially dogs. She’s also a trainer, very knowledgeable, kind, friendly, loving to my fur baby Bentley. If you are picky with who takes care of your fur baby and want someone who truly cares and knowledgeable. Look no further, give Lucinda at Happy Pets Sitting Services a call. Thank you so much for taking care of Bentley, she misses playing in your beautiful back yard. We will see you next year when we come for car week.
Anytime I went out of town I took my dog to Lucinda and she took great care of her! We went through a thorough interview process first to make sure my dog Indy was a good fit too. Lucinda is very knowledgeable about dogs and was great about sending pictures/updates whenever Indy stayed for boarding. You can tell lucinda really loves the dogs and I always felt good about leaving my dog in her care. She also has a great backyard that my dog loved!!
Lucinda is such a gift! I wholeheartedly recommend her for any pet sitting needs. She is also a lovely human being and very easy to work with. We had to leave our rescue pup for 4 days and 3 nights for his first overnight ever, and not only did Lucinda take excellent care of him, she provided so much nourishment, socialization, and enrichment for him that he wanted to stay when I picked him up four days later! She put my mind at ease by sending adorable pictures, videos, and updates daily and when requested. I included some of her photos in this review. She is knowledgeable about canine nutrition, training with positive rewards, and loves what she does. She provided a free meet-and-greet, answered all of my questions, and got to know our pet. Her prices are reasonable, and she has been able to accommodate unexpected schedule changes on little notice for us. I can’t say enough about Lucinda. Our dog’s new favorite place is Happy Pets, the perfect name. We will be returning for years to come.
Lucinda is a true professional! She’s really a gift to our family. Our puppy loves to spend time at Happy Pets. Lucinda is a natural extension of our family. She treats our puppy with love and care. We were so impressed with the on-boarding experience. She made sure our puppy was the right fit for Happy Pets and that Happy Pets was the right fit for our puppy. She’s extremely knowledgeable and demonstrates her knowledge and care in all that she provides. We highly recommend Happy Pets!
My dog Gertie has stayed at Happy Pets on two occasions. Both times for a week at a time. I received pictures of Gertie and updates on a regular basis. She has fun playing with the other dogs and having the run of the house and yard. Lucinda is definitely a dog person and treats the dogs like her babies. I am so happy I found her. I will be using Happy pets every time I travel.
Lucinda is one of the most helpful people I have ever chatted with. I could tell she has a huge heart and loves to help others. Your dog will be well cared for with her!
Lucinda has been lovingly taking care of Quincy for a few years now. He has been taking chemo/immunotherapy for almost a year and I can always leave with confidence knowing he is in good caring hands. How lucky are we to have her in our area!!
lucinda is great with dogs. She really understands how to handle them and what they need in a home away form home. We have used her twice now, and each time has been easy and calm.
Lucinda is amazing! She is professional and sweet.
My heart was touched at how helpful the owner of this company was. She couldn't accommodate my dog herself, but she made sure to give me any resources she could ❤️
amazing place, i boarded my dog for the first time for the weekend that & she was so happy. they sent me pictures & videos & kept me updated the whole weekend. definitely made leaving her for the first time so much easier
We went to the US Open this week and had the delightful opportunity to take our two Cavalier’s (18 weeks old) to WaggsN’Naggs. The boys had so much fun. I highly recommend this business the staff and owners are incredible, friendly and very good with pets. Thank you so much for giving us peace of mind while enjoying the golf tournament.
Jan is awesome!! I've been taking my pets to her for years. She's so awesome with the animals and you can tell that she really loves taking care of them. Very clean environment and the grounds are beautiful!!!
We take our little dachshund there. It is very clean and is run very professionally. There are separate areas for little dogs and big dogs. Highly recommend. !!!
Nice and open. My Golden loves it there. Always comes back tired from all the playing.
Great place! Our dog loves going there.
Great people and our dog loved it.

I definitely recommend it...my dog was well taken care of, he had a lot of fun, he felt loved and cared for by the people who took care of him. I loved that place for my puppy. Since I saw it, I knew it would be an excellent place for him to feel at home. home..from now on every time you go on vacation this place will be your second home 🥰
We are so fortunate to have found Wendy to help us care for our doggies! I can’t say enough positive things. She is trustworthy and reliable and our doggies are happy and well taken care of under her care. I highly recommend her dog sitting services!
I can’t say enough good things about working with Wendy and highly recommend using her services. Wendy is amazing to work with and was very attentive to our high energy pup. We were desperate to find someone to care for our dog while we got married in Monterey and Wendy was so helpful! She was very flexible in scheduling and it was a huge relief to not be worried about our pup during wedding festivities. Not to mention our dog Cami loved her, and Wendy took amazing professional photos of our dog and shared them with us regularly.
My pup Cali joined Cypress Coast Canine Care several months ago when our other dog walker moved away. Wendy has been a lifesaver in taking Cali on daily walks and adventures while I'm at work. Wendy is extremely kind and I can tell she cares so much about my fur baby - I trust her wholeheartedly to take care of her! She has been extremely accommodating whenever I have a schedule change and need extra help during the week. Wendy has also taken Cali for overnight care while I was out of town recently. I received daily updates and adorable pictures of my dog enjoying her time while I was away so I did not have to stress about leaving her. I would absolutely recommend Cypress Coast Canine Care to any of my friends needing help in finding someone to take care of their pups. I know Cali looks forward to her future adventures with the pack!
My dog yanks and pulls and i have been turned down by many walkers but Wendy has been able to teach my dog to walk property and support me with walks whenever i need them! I am so lucky i found her, she is always there for a quick 30 minute walk for the full hour walk whenever my dog needs it and i feel so safe and comfortable with her with my pup! Thank you so much !
kept me updated with the most beautiful photos!
Wendy is hands down the best dog nanny we have ever had , she is the only person I trust fully with my fur babies. Wendy is loving, compassionate, punctual and extremely flexible, she always works around our schedule and needs, my pups arrive happy and tired from their adventures. But the true test is when I see my dogs waiting for her by the door each morning and how excited they get when they see her and to me that speaks volumes.
We organized a wedding package with the walker Maurie and we could not be happier with the service we received. Her and Dan were overly communicative about how to organize a wedding package as they had not already established one, and they were so flexible. Maurie was great about keeping our dog near the party, but never in the way. Our dog was so happy to be a part of the day and he really got along so well with Maurie. We are convinced he would have played with her all day. He seemed to be so in love with her when she picked him up and dropped him off. They truly cared about making it a special day for us, as well as keeping our dog in great spirits, and we cannot recommend them enough!!!
My husband Steve and I have been clients of Monterey Pet Care since January 2012. It is an excellent company with quality staff - reliable, trustworthy, and accommodating. Initially, we arranged for daily walks for our two labrador retrievers when I was working full-time and my husband was recovering from hip surgery. But due to our busy lives and the excellent experience we had in the beginning, we have continued with a regular daily walk for our dogs since then. We trust them, and they really ease our load! We are concerned "parents". We center our lives around the dogs, because not only are they wonderful and loving family dogs, they are active, energetic dogs who need a lot of exercise. And because we have had dogs of all ages since January 2012 - young adult dogs, elderly dogs, and puppies - one dog with knee problems, and even one who had chemotherapy, we can attest that the walkers are good with all ages and conditions. We feel fortunate to have found Monterey Pet Care with its very dependable, friendly, and professional walkers. They arrive on time and treat our dogs and everyone they meet with respect. If owners have preferences, they will do their best to follow them - for us, this means they lock the doors when they leave even if we are home.
Monterey Pet Spa is absolutely wonderful! They took care of all 4 of my cats! First, I took my 3 cats in person on 01/05/24 and waited for about 2 1/2 hours since they did the bathing service (shampoo, conditioner, ear cleaning, and nail trimming). I was going to do the ear plunking services as well but the groomer said it wasn’t necessary so they took off the service! Overall, at that time, they did a fantastic job! For my last cat today at 01/09/24 (this was the only available/soonest date they have cause their groomer(s) come in specific dates/times so be sure to ask them about their availability), I had my cat picked up and dropped off with their shuttle services (also ask due to availability). They came at a timely matter (around 10:38am) and the driver was super gentle and kind with my cat during the whole process! During this time, Monterey Pet Spa was really good with replying to me whenever I was checking in on my cat. They replied in less than 5 minutes! They gave me peace of mind that my cat was taken cared of! Overall, the experience was really nice! I recommend them for sure! I’m going to bring all 4 of my cats back in the reoccurring months! I plan to do this every 3-4 months!
I was there to drop off my client's 2 cats after a cross country transport and got there early. The manager was on site, even though very specific dropoff times were listed, she took them in early. I and my client were very appreciative.
The owner is super positive and very professional. We were traveling through and had our two standard poodles in the daycare for just the day, as well as bathed and brushed out. The shot records were carefully checked before our dogs were accepted, and when we came back they were clean and happy.
Please don’t go there. They cut my dogs mail so short that she bled and our entire carpet had to shampooed. Also super unorganized as well with a ton of paperwork and requirements.
this place is great!! they always make room for our pup and he comes back happy, clean, and nice-smelling as ever. truly an amazing place to take your pet for grooming or boarding if you’re in the area! 🤍
Staff was a bit condescending....not exactly a pleasant experience to say the least.
Great grooming place, you drop off your dog and they are fast and efficient.
Love the staff and you can tell they really care about the dogs
Solid service we weren't totally happy with the cuts they got but they did try and fix it.
my dog was treated well -
